Sure, but there's a maximum spread on a pin oak. I'm not the client, but I imagine he's thinking it's a one and done job. Not a "We have to come back every 2 years to prevent the tree from doing it's thing" thing. I don't see that tree ever being a problem aside from creating and dropping...
I'm not cory, but I'd say "too much" is when it looks the same or thicker after 2 years. Unless the people are loaded(that is not a "loaded" subdivision), and willing to have someone come out every couple years to maintain it, I think trimming could be counterproductive. You get the same thing...
On a practical note, I don't think it should be Akimbo blue. It should stand apart from the older version. Sherrill yellow is a meh color imo. I like purple, but red would be a nice color too.
I wonder if he's expected to keep the pool clean. Covering the pool would be 95% of the work.
edit:
Thinking about it... Perhaps an inverted parasol beneath the cuts would be sufficient? Kind of like those silly haircatchers they sold for haircuts a long time ago.
